On the trail crew side of things, they’ve put a lot of focus on the aMTB Loop, building upon all the work done by so many volunteers. The Hiking section is almost completed and the revitalization of Old Buck and Empress Bypass is in progress!

They’ve also taken care of some maintenance and water management on Ladies Only, TNT, Pingu, Corkscrew, Boogieman, Boogienights, Lower Ladies, and Dempsey as well as a constructing a brand new optional line on Expresso! All that combined with prepping even more cedar for bridge repairs and replacements and working through the annual assessment process with the land managers alongside the other builders.
